externally defined data structure + renamed fields = confusion!!!!!

["Prowak, Dave" <DProwak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Here's a "simple" example to depict my quandary:
   File1 contains a field named F0001.
   File2 also contains a field named F0001.

With an I-spec I redefine F0001 to C0001.

I have an externally described data structure that
refers to File2.  The problem is that the field within the
externally described data structure that refers to F0001 needs
to refer to C0001 instead (since C0001 is the field in File2, while
F0001 still refers to the field within File1).
D Some_DS     E  DS                  ExtName(File2)       

I can't use the ExtFld keyword within the externally described 
data structure because C0001 is not externally described.

So, how do I get the externally described data structure
to refer to the redefined fields within File2?

Thanks,
Dave
